Good price if you want the DIY model, around £40 elsewhere.

There's an automatic model?
Wife: What's going on here, why you just laying there reading the paper?
Me: It's OK I've done the dog, two sideboards and our lad's skateboard
Wife: Fine I'm off shopping then!
Me: I did the credit cards too!
Wife: That's it I'm getting a divorce
Me: I have no money I spent it on all these grinders! ROFL!
A man can dream :disappointed:

One review on their site...
Not suitable for cutting metal
I purchased a Bosch Angle Grinder ref PWS 7-115 from B & Q specifically because it states on the box that this tool is "ideal for metal working: grinding, cutting and brushing". The detailed instructions however inform me that I should use guard ref 10 for cutting but this guard is not included. This omission means that without this guard, the tool as sold and as advertised on the box is not suitable for cutting metal. The statement on the box is therefore misleading. Unfortunately the same store does not stock the required guard. I have two serious concerns: I have been sold an item which clearly does not safely comply with the product description on the box and is therefore not suitable for purpose as sold. It is also possible that some people may be tempted to use it in an unsafe manner as the correct guard is not included in the package.

The Bosch Blue version comes up for £35 regularly on screwfix. A tenner more , or 40%, depending on how you look at it.
I've never heard of a different guard for metal.

Me neither, the standard guard is fine. It's usually a good idea to rotate it to suit whether you're left or right handed though.

The Bosch blue one is on there are the moment for £34.99 but it is the old model with the 600w motor.

Does this come with the blades or just the grinder. Looked at the BnQ link no mention of blades?
